An amazing amount of hand-wringing over the starting QB. 

It's hilarious. With our o-line and defensive front 7, it doesn't matter who starts at QB.

I finally went back and watched some of the 11 on 11 from the other night.  It looked like both QB's would have been sacked or running for their lives on most throws down the field.  And we know our front 7 isn't shit.  So this is about where I'm at as well.   The decision should probably come down to who throws the best ball once protection inevitably breaks down.

Wow, this thread has the AIDS

Super AIDS

Until the coaches start game installs, there is nothing special about practice. You think Sarkisian is running anything specific from the playbook in open practice portions. I'd feel a lot worse if the defense wasn't dominating because they know what the offense is doing.

I was just thinking that what this board could really use is a good, old-fashioned, face-melting, impassioned, hysterical and histrionic quarterback controversy. Bonus points if y'all start threatening each other with physical violence. 

I'm over here watching Card highlights from '21.

Man, I am trying so so hard to find something to make me excited and I am not finding it.

I'm not putting it outside the realm of possibility that he has evolved and improved (also, Whittington fucked us hard in that Arkansas game) but I also think a player has tendencies and those rarely change.

I'd just like to see Quinn get one more chance in the scrimmage this Saturday.

Friend hired a couple of low level Russian mob guys to handle a domestic violence situation a few years ago.  He was satisfied with their work.  If anybody needs their contact info dm me.

well, my hope, if we go with Card, would be that we would see dramatic improvement as most QBs tend to do between their 1st and 2nd years. 

This is a reasonable hope on its face and as a relentless optimist I choose to believe it's possible. The problem is that with him it's a mental thing. In the spring game in 2021, he threw an incredible touchdown pass where he released the ball well before the receiver had cleared the defenders.  It showed vision and awareness of where everyone on the field was and would be moving. But when the lights turned on and live fire against actual opponents started, that player was nowhere to be seen. It doesn't matter how competitive he was before or what level he played at before, a mental block like that can take years to overcome if ever. Card actually needs to be babied along at this point much more than the guy who's never taken a competitive college snap. Wherever he is right now, Chuck Knoblauch is probably throwing lasers on target in his backyard with his kids, but put him in uniform in a game situation and he would spike it 20 feet from the target.

I think the poorly centered goalposts at DKR ends up fucking with our QB's head.

I think that meme originated somewhere here in this thread. I’m too lazy to find the first post about misaligned goal posts

Fan fiction but of course I’d love it if things went this way. (9-3)

The Bears shut down Sarkisian's offense in Waco last season. It is hard to believe that could happen two years in a row, but the Bears' defense could be that good. In the end, the Longhorns get their upset, and Sark gets his second signature win of the year on a last-second field goal.

I guess this guy wasn't at the open practice.

Let’s just run the wildcat all year, rotate the backs and bench both QBs

RoJo is the man to lead the triple option if needed

Listen here you little shit...

I used to think this way, too, because I am the motherfucking King of Shitty Takes. So I got some books on football, did a lot of YouTube follows, and finally remembered one thing.

Coaches are, by and large, still those same dumbfuck jocks we made fun of in high school for being dumbfuck jocks. There aren't a lot of brain cells in the field. Even when your get a guy like Bill "The Genius" Walsh around, we're not talking about your average biotech research scientist or anything; he just seems that way by comparison.

So yeah, fuck "trust the coaches." I saw what I saw last year from Card. The guy's problem isn't fixable. We have two very good young QBs in Quinn and Malik. If Card starts for us and those two guys are anything other than injured, throwing the coaches under the bus isn't a terrible idea.

Pay attention to my posts bud. I feel Ewers should start. You singled out this post needlessly. 

 

Little, who you calling little? I may be a shit though. I'll give some credit.

What do you think i have been suggesting with SmashMouth!  Load up all our big blockers and turn Bijan, RoJo and our stable of backs loose!

Get Sark to cook up some inventive power football until QE is ready to take the rains!

Pretty sad situation where both Coburn and Sweat are being outplayed by younger players...

If he has an idea it feels like it would be Murphy.

I guess the old ball coach didn’t get the memo. Some wonk on the internet named the starter at a noon press conference a couple of days ago.

I keep seeing people say this. It’s 1 year. He played his junior year at SLC, then enrolled at OSU and held a clipboard.

1 year without playing a competitive snap, just like Card last year when he started game 1 as a RS Freshman 

2022 - 2020 is 2 years. 1 season but 2 calendar years

Have we tried turning Sark off and turning him back on again?

Using that logic, nobody on our roster has played football for an entire year. 

No wonder we suck, the whole team is rusty! Seems unfair.
